Dependents (StudioTax)
Hi All, I have a tax related question for 2020.
My common-law spouse and I have a 6 month old daughter that is healthy with no major medical expenses. We all live in the same household. My spouse recieves the CCB monthly.
In StudioTax 2020 I see an option for dependents. Is our daughter considered a dependent? When I add my daughter (no income & no tuition credit selected) it changes my refund by about 100 dollars and does not change my spouses refund (I'm creating linked return).
My understanding is that dependents are for children (or other family members/sponsored children) that have a disability or for separated parents. is this accurate?
Thanks in advance.
